As my family and friends were gathered I read: 
Dear Sister Katie Jean Koford: You are herby called to serve as a missionary of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. You are assigned to labor in the Tennessee Nashville Mission. It is anticipated that you will serve for a period of 18 months. You Should report to the Provo Missionary Training Center on Wednesday September 15, 2010... 
I am so greatful for this opportunity that I have to serve. I pray that I will be able to find those that are looking for the gospel and answers in their life. I hope that I will be able to teach them about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I love the Lord and I am so happy to be sharing His gospel!
(and if anyone has any questions about my religion and what I am devoting 18 months of my life to sharing you can ask me!)
